    I know the place stile. the clerk may have been Mexican but the head people are Greek.

    I heard two people speaking behind the counter at the restaurant and it wasn't Spanish.

    Just out of curiosity, what do Americans do any more? Any gas station, restaurant, laundromat and yes, more and more truck drivers, seem to be of foreign descent. Not that I'm against that, by any means, just an observation, is all.:dontknow:

    It is the old Pilot. I've fueled and parked there a few times rather than fight the BS at the J. Never had any issues getting a parking permit and the staff were pretty friendly to me. Last time I was there the clerk was a white chick that looked like she recently got out of rehab. I'm sort of brown though so maybe that's why I had no issues! LOL

    15-20 years ago it was quite common to pay at many Petro's and TA's. All the ones you see that have what's left of a little building between the in and out lanes. That building was a toll shack.

    Don't you realize how strenuous Facebooking and Tweeting all day can be? Constantly having to hit the "like" button over and over! No time to do any stinking work!!! Just waiting for Uncle Sugar to drop that check in the mail! :)
